DCS has promoted Jim Belcher from operations and systems engineering department manager to vice president of ground vehicle systems.
The employee-owned company said Thursday that he will be the program manager for the $2.1 billion Technical Engineering Services contract it landed with the Ground Vehicle Systems Center of the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command.
Throughout his 22-year career, Belcher has applied his chemical engineering degree to support the U.S. Navy, Air Force, Special Operations Command, NASA and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
He became part of DCS when it acquired Infoscitex Corp., where he was technical operations manager of special programs.
“Jim’s passion and focus building multidisciplinary teams and leading them to solve the most difficult technical challenges facing our U.S. Armed Forces is a great benefit to DCS and our warfighters,” said Bill Protzman, president and chief operating officer of DCS.
